Send us Fan MailIf you’ve ever felt better temporarily after antibiotics, herbals, or restrictive diets only to have symptoms slowly return again, this episode explains why that happens and what’s often being missed underneath the surface.Rather than viewing SIBO as simply “bad bacteria coming back,” Alyssa walks through the larger gut environment that allows overgrowth to happen in the first place — including motility issues, digestion problems, nervous system dysregulation, constipation, microbiome depletion, and impaired gut defenses.You’ll learn:Why recurring SIBO is usually not just one single “root cause”The difference between treating bacterial overgrowth vs restoring gut functionHow the small intestine normally regulates bacterial balanceWhy impaired motility and the migrating motor complex matter so muchThe role of stomach acid, bile flow, digestive enzymes, and gut immunityWhy symptom relief does not always mean the gut environment has recoveredThe hidden reasons SIBO keeps relapsing after treatmentWhy restrictive diets alone rarely create lasting recoveryHow chronic stress and nervous system dysregulation affect digestionWhat needs to improve to make long-term progress possibleFree resources:Download Alyssa’s FREE SIBO Diet Recipe Collection for breakfast, lunch, snack, and dessert ideas that support gut healing without unnecessary restriction.
